I Wrote The Song "show Me" As

You Believe In Equality For Women And Men. And That Means That, Not Only Do You Believe In It Kind Of In The Abstract But You Actively Think People Should Seek It When It Comes To The Way You Hire People, The Way You Compensate People, The Way You Treat Women And Men In Professional Settings And School, Whatever The Case, Giving Them Equal Opportunities Without Disadvantaging Them Because Of Their, For The Fact That They're Women. And To Me That's What It Means For Me To Be A Feminist. I Don't Think It's That Controversial.

Sometimes I Start Just On The Piano With A Melody Or Musical Idea That Kind Of Leads Me To Certain Lyrics.

I Wrote The Song "show Me" As A Prayer To God Asking Simple, Honest Questions About Life And Death And Why There Is So Much Suffering In The World. As I Grew With The Song I Realized I Shouldn't Limit These Questions Solely To God; I Should Ask Those Questions Of Others And Of Myself.

But In My Mind I've Always Been A Solo Artist- I've Just Been Working With A Lot Of Great People Like Kanye And Alicia Keys And Jay-z.

As A Young Black Boy, It Made Me Proud To See Black Leaders That Did Something Amazing And Made The World Change.
